As for conservative radio dominating the past 2 1/2 decades, you've never driven across hlthe2b Sep 2021 #4

Again, here is what I found about radio where I live in Upper Michigan Kaleva Sep 2021 #6

You are seriously out of touch applying this to all rural areas. Are you just outside Detroit or hlthe2b Sep 2021 #28

Can you quote the part where I said this applies to all rural areas? Kaleva Sep 2021 #37

I'm still looking for ratings for RW radio stations but have been unsuccessful so far. Kaleva Sep 2021 #39

FWIW, the stations on that list that carry WVCY programing are definitely hate radio. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2021 #32

Which stations are those? Kaleva Sep 2021 #40

The ones that list WVCY as the parent station. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2021 #44

It's repetition and they spread the gospel underpants Sep 2021 #5

Maybe. Like people repeating that Fox has brainwashed half the nation. Others come to believe that. Kaleva Sep 2021 #8

I did use to drive in the south a couple of times each year Tomconroy Sep 2021 #7

If I have time, maybe I'll look at lists of radio stations in other areas of the country. Kaleva Sep 2021 #9

"Rush Limbaugh seemed to be everywhere" . . . . hatrack Sep 2021 #30

So where is the propaganda coming from? Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #10

Glad you asked. Dream Girl Sep 2021 #12

We know Russia has been working on Facebook. Spreading propaganda. Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #13

Looks like more research is needed. Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #16

Yes. More then I can possibly do. Kaleva Sep 2021 #17

Joe Rogan's podcasts get about 11 million viewers on average. Evan1980 Sep 2021 #38

Wow, I had no idea. Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #45

Part of the problem is that there literally is nothing else to listen to in those regions. no_hypocrisy Sep 2021 #11

There's over a hundred FM and AM stations in Upper Michigan and northern Wisconsin Kaleva Sep 2021 #14

Point taken. I was thinking about the southern states. no_hypocrisy Sep 2021 #18

You could be correct about stations in the South. Kaleva Sep 2021 #19

So they were ripe for picking in terms of GOP propaganda machines. Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #46

Fox is brainwashing right now. They just had on a heart surgeon* saying we don't need vaccines .... Botany Sep 2021 #20

Not sure what your point is with AM radio Cosmocat Sep 2021 #22

I think there are a number of things this analysis is missing genxlib Sep 2021 #23

It doesn't take 24/7 hate radio, just Lars39 Sep 2021 #27

Huge missing element: RW listeners are having THEIR OWN preconceptions, Hortensis Sep 2021 #31

I agree with you Kaleva Sep 2021 #34

Yes, and there definitely are more extreme source out there. Lars39 Sep 2021 #35

Wow. Unfortunately for the receptive minds in that blue oasis, Hortensis Sep 2021 #36

The good folks at FR brainwash themselves by getting their news from little known RW news sites Kaleva Sep 2021 #33
